Begins building dam without Central Water Commission?s approval Environmentalists fear the project will lead to major ecological disasters. The Rs.20 crore polavaram project has not been approved and government?s move to go ahead with the construction violates the Bachawat Tribunal and will displace about two lakh people and tribal families, as 276 villages and about 95,000 acres of farm land will be acquired for it.
